A private luxury club that former Guangzhou Party chief Wan Qingliang used to frequent has closed and become overgrown with weeds, according to a Xinhua report, which called it "a ruin of corruption".

Pinyunxuan restaurant, located in the famous Baiyunshan scenic spot in Guangzhou, Guangdong province, began to introduce popular low-priced dishes after Wan, who was also a former member of the standing committee of the Guangdong Provincial Party Committee, was investigated in June.

The restaurant was closed down at the beginning of the year due to poor management, Xinhua reported.
